Bailey and Friends

[Bailey's Mom]

Well Marie-this should make you feel better about Ella........maybe.......
I've talked before about how Bailey is "protective" about me. It started out with some minor growling when Bob would kiss me goodnight in bed, or in the AM. It has evolved to now a nasty growling, baring of teeth and some "snapping" of sorts.

She has also become VERY vocal whenever anyone approaches the cul-de-sac or house....and races to the door barking loudly. She has a rather high pitch to her bark, so it usually startles me.

Obviously both behaviors need to be corrected. Since you've worked extensively with Ella, how about if I ship Bailey to you via FedEx ro WallyEx???

Bailey is too heavy as a collar as well. Palmer "got it" I don't know why she can't. You put your weight on the CHAIR......not MY NECK!!
The birds are chirping here. Boy are they going to be surprised when Friday comes and we get a real taste of winter. Jonquils are coming up. Those little tiny whatchamacallits (do you believe that is in spell check???) are coming up. Crocus. That's what they are.

Take care, dear friend.

Love,
Susan

Sounds like you need the Dog Whisper for Bailey and her protectiveness. I guess you will have to have Bob own the bed and you against Bailey so she knows who comes before her on the ladder.

So far Ella doesn't show ownership of the couch or bed or much of anything, she is just a booger. She does try to lay down on my pillow at night before I can get in bed, but you can move her real easy.

I think WalleyEx might be a little more expensive than the FedEx. Ella would love to have Bailey come stay for a while. I just hope I am up to the challenge of two little boogers.

Be care with those Jonquils - very interesting. Are these the ones that make a lot of noise also?? That might be further South right?

HUH??!!
Me thinks you've flipped out.

The flowers here do not have voices............


Have a GREAT Wednesday.
I'm bushed.
G'nite!
Love,

LOL!!!

I think I now realize you were talking about flowers, maybe, and I was on locus/grasshopper type bugs--where was my mind, probably underwater in the non-basement.Didn't you know flowers make noise-hehehe!!!

Just realize it doesn't take much for me to flip out!!!!

The rain was a joke yesterday and last night--I don't think altogether it ever covered up the sidewalk or driveway. Now on to the sunshine for the rest of the week--now they are saying tomorrow will be 79, but the weekend looks like it the upper to mid 60's--darn cannot really be sending the warmth your way this time.

I am not sure if I said on your thread or Ella's, but I am looking into some more training classes. I am going to try and observe one on Sunday to see if it will help or the trainer can teach us. I am looking into beginning agility also--like I have time for this, but I don't have a life on the weekends so why not wear Ella out.

Enjoy the day and I hope you got some rest/sleep last night!!!

Happy Thursday Susan,


Enjoy those talking flowers

LOL, Marie, but I had to think for a minute what they were too

Flowers, bugs, all the same, no?????

love,
addy

[Bailey's Mom]

Oh no, no, no, no. Do your really want your husband to give you a dozen red bugs on Valentine's Day????

[marie adams]

HaHaHa!!! Maybe I will get a multi color bunch of bugs...!!!

Happy Thursday!!!

[marie adams]

Happy Sunday!!!

[Bailey's Mom]

No-not happy Sunday. A muscle has locked up on my left knee. It started around 9 last night. I had to spend the night and all day in the recliner up here. So long as I don't move the joint...it's tolerable. If I want to get out of the recliner, off the toilet, back down on the recliner....I think you can probably hear the scream at your house.

You MUST be having a better day than this, I hope.

love,
susan
